What do a pair of knighted actors do at the end of a successful Broadway run? Take a tour of New York City, of course.

Sir Patrick Stewart posted a steady stream of pictures with fellow Brit, Sir Ian McKellen, on Twitter from March 19 to March 30. The duo finished a critically acclaimed run in “No Man’s Land’’ and “Waiting for Godot’’ last weekend.

The first tweet in the series reads, “As it’s @TwoPlaysInRep last 2 weeks we thought we’d share all the #gogodididonyc “outtakes’’…1 for each show left.’’

The best part: You can bid on three autographed t-shirts that are printed with a photograph of the pair from their Coney Island adventures. Proceeds from the auction will benefit City Harvest, but move quick because the bidding ends at midnight on April, 3.

Check out all of the pictures from places like Coney Island, in reverse chronological order, below.
